PA18CAT20PASA Overview
For reliable operation, the photoelectric sensor's temperature should be set to -25°C~60°C. For these electronic components to function, a voltage of 10V~30V should be applied to a circuit or system. A photoelectric sensor with a response time of 1ms is considered to be ideal. To make the photoelectric sensor work properly, 4 pins must be connected. In order to operate, photoelectric sensor should have a current of 100mA at the output. The maximum voltage of 30V in a DC circuit can be applied to the photoelectric sensor without causing damage. Photoelectric sensors work at as low a voltage as possible, for example 10V. Photoelectric sensors are included in the package Axial for convenience.
